In other news, my sister is the proud new mama to two Jack Rusell terriers.
She is allowing me some input on the boy puppy's name.
I suggested "Arf".
That went over like a lead balloon with nephew Jason.
He called me last night to tell me that they are thinking of calling the puppy "Pirate" because he has a black patch on one eye.
I was thinking that perhaps my lovely blog friends would like to toss in their two cents.
We have until Tuesday to come up with a good pirate name.

you mean, besides Jack...
hmmm...Manny. :o)
How about Capt. Jack? Named after Capt. Jack Sparrow from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies and since he's a Jack Russell Terrier.
Or Capt. Morgan if there are any rum-lovers in the family?
Or Argh?
Wait, I thought of another one: Patches! For the patch over the eye.
P-Dog, short for pirate dog.
Scurvy
Matey
Cruzan (for the Rum)
I'll think of more...don't you worry...
Hmmmm. Uncle Fester. His eyes were always shadowed, weren't they?
Or Willie- after the pirate with the eye patch in The Goonies.
Or maybe Goonie.
I really like Capt. Jack or just Morgan.
But for my original suggestion - how about Matey. You know "arrrrh matey".
how about the Iron Dumpling
also;
SeaGar
Barnacle (barney)
The William (pirate ship)(how cool to call a dog 'The Dogname', very Elizabethan)
'Terror on the High Seas' aka Toths or Toth

I'd love to hear some of Jo's own suggestions - she's so crafty with the language.
Might I suggest a compromise? They like Pirate, you like Arf... What about ARRRR... (get it??? as in, what a pirate says...)
hmm...
Aw man! Jenster beat me to it. I was totally going to say Captain Jack Sparrow...I've got nothin' else, so I'll throw my vote in for that one anyway.
I tried to get my family to name our new dog D-O-G .....say it fast :)
Oh, my god...how adorable! One of our dogs is part JR; that whole spotted eye thing is too much.
Just checking...have you sent and/or received your BBM package yet? I've not had any contact from you since swap info went out...please get back to me as soon as you can; thanks!
